Description Prasad Pandit 2013-11-22 12:53:51 UTC 
Linux kernel built with a Adaptec RAID controllers support(CONFIG_SCSI_AACRAID)
is vulnerable to a invalid pointer dereference flaw. It could occur while doing an ioctl(2) call with a FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB command.

A privileged(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) user/program could use this flaw to make kernel dereference invalid pointer which results in kernel crash (DoS) or could, potentially, result in privilege escalation.

The Red Hat Security Response Team does not consider this issue to be a security flaw due to the full root-like privileges (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) needed for successful exploitation.
